I am not sure what would be the best ram to buy thats why i am asking
also if anyone has any advice on what i should buy for other parts or any general info i would need to know about building a computer.

I bought a bare bone computer this is what i have so far the mother board i mentioned above.

AMD Athlon II X2 215 Dual Core Processor

NZXT M59-001BK M59 Gaming Mid Tower Case

Ultra LSP650 650-Watt Power Supply

This is all I have for now so if anyone has an idea of what type of hard drive to buy or other parts please let me know as right now I have stopped my project until i get more info on what is the best ram to buy.Thanks in advance.
take care and have a nice day

As far as a Harddrive. A Seagate 7200.12 or Western Digital Black or Samsung F3. I would change the Ultra power supply for a Antec/PC P&C/Corsair/OCZ/BFG/XCilo/Silverstone/Cooler Master.
